CS:GO

We are heading back to the Polish city Katowice as we are about to witness the Intel Extreme Masters Season 11 World Championship.

Last year's edition was won by the Swedish powerhouse Fnatic, who managed to take down the Brazilians, back then under the Luminosity Gaming banner, in a three-map series. Furthermore our CS:GO squad has just recently finished second at DreamHack Las Vegas and the players are currently bootcamping in our training facility in Cologne, Germany, which sparks promising early predictions.

The following twelve teams divined into two groups will battle each other in the beginning of March in the Polish city:

The group stage will take place on 1st to 2nd of March and use a round-robin best-of-one structure, while the playoffs will continue throughout the last three days of the event using the traditional single elimination best-of-three format until the best-of-five final. The top two teams of each group will proceed directly to the semi-finals, while the other remaining two spots for the playoffs will be determined in a redrawn best-of-three group.

The following crew will also be on site to handle the tournament's broadcast:
